<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When I try and boot a host via PXE (have tried e1000 etc, but leaving as VirtIO driver) it fails to get the DHCP address, I can see the broadcast traffic hitting the foreman server, and the foreman server replying with an IP - but it isn’t
getting to the guest, or the packets are getting corrupted. The UCS is correctly identifying and seeing the MAC address, so that looks good as well from the VMFEX side of things.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Tested the dhcp only component, so I grabbed an ISO and booted from a CD. The installer correctly got its DHCP address and proceed to install. Once the host was on-line it correctly got its IP via DHCP - So by this I’ve proven that a vm
guest can correctly receive DHCP packets when using the VMFEX network.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Open to any further suggestions - as when using this and a foreman server/katello satellite pxe booting is kinda important!<o:p></o:p></p>
